8. John Cena Vs. Edge (c) Vs. Big Show - WrestleMania XXV
Much like the women's three way that started this list off, this match had the unenviable honour of following a genuine show-stealer in the shape of The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels. These are three of the biggest names of a generation however, and they managed to keep the crowd invested throughout the match. Cena gets another fantastic entrance, flanked by legions of Cena clones. Big Show took control early on, giving Edge a particularly short shrift as this was during their love triangle (of sorts) with Vickie Guerrero, an image I really do not need to return to my brain. Cena, the good guy, was actually added to this match by blackmailing Vickie with footage of her affair with Show, which he then showed anyway. What a guy! The match itself was pretty darn good however, as the three tried to add some innovative spots to the fairly tired three-way formula, and Big Show looked pretty dominant for the first time in seemingly forever. The finish was visually impressive too, as Cena managed to get both Edge and Show up on his shoulders for a moment before giving them individual AA's and pinning Show to pick up the strap.
